Guest #10, your order is ready.


Overall Rating: 7.65/10

It's been a while, and it's not from lack of trying either. I still pretty much go every week and every week I am usually like one number away from an original. Maybe this is the beginning of a hot streak.

Burger - I tried something new today, extra spread. It wasn't bad, but it's not something I'll likely want again. It made the burger taste a bit more tangy (or sour). It actually could have been the not all the way ripe tomato though. Otherwise, the current tried and true held firm. Texture wise this was a great burger. And presentation gets near top marks as well. Only one tomato which is always good because it means less work on my part. Unfortunately the extra spread made the last few bites a bit sloppy.

Taste - 1.4 (out of 2)
Texture - 1.9 (out of 2)
Presentation - .9 (out of 1)

Fries - So I tried well done fries again for only the second time. If they were always like my first time (which unfortunately wasn't a review) then I might always get them. But this time they were extremely well done to the point where they were just crunch and no soft inside. I've come to the decision that I'd rather have the occasional limp batch of fries than the completely charred batch of fries. And while this may be my fault for trying new things, these fries still get relatively low marks on taste and texture.

Taste - 1.45 (out of 2)
Texture - 1 (out of 2)

Diet Coke - 1 (out of 1)

There wasn't much interesting. This was one of my rare weekend visits though. And I did notice when posting this that my last number was #9. I'm curious if that was my first sequential original numbers in a row or if I've done it before.

I think the messiness of the burger today affected the score plus it was one of those days where everything was good, better than usual possibly, just not "great".

And I tried something different again today, which you can't really tell from looking at the food. I tried "mustard grilled" which is where they put mustard on the burger when grilling it. And I know it was done because I checked the burger patty itself but yet I couldn't really taste any hint of mustard. Kind of strange really. But other than the messiness of the burger I wouldn't really say anything was wrong with it.

The fries were pretty spot on as well with only a couple of them being under cooked. Sure I had to add my own S&P but it's rare I don't have to do that. Sometimes I think that maybe I shouldn't include that in my rating, but then I think that the "perfect" meal should be rated on how it's given to me. One day In-N-Out will give me a 10/10 meal, I believe it.

Nothing really interesting unfortunately. Went with a few guys from work that I haven't gone with before, as well as a few that I have. Crammed six of us into one outside table. Also I am pretty sure somebody in my group was #1 as I know somebody was #99. Ah well, maybe next time.
